Health Matters in Early Childhood

Good health is important during early childhood because healthy children grow and learn best.

Keeping children healthy can be a challenge, however, because illness is a common occurrence in early childhood. Caregivers and early childhood teachers sometimes find themselves struggling to balance a parent’s need to remain at work with their responsibility to accurately assess whether a mildly ill child should remain in care or return home.

Think Big. Start Small. Health Matters offers early childhood professionals the resources and support they need to promote ongoing, healthy early childhood education and care. Medical professionals, early childhood caregivers and teachers alike can benefit.  Click here for more information on Think Big. Start Small. Health Matters.
